Jazz Ink

Jazz Ink reads as a deep, blue-leaning charcoal, with a quiet matte surface and barely visible vertical and horizontal movement in the weave. Its near-solid appearance gives the shade a dense, understated depth rather than a patterned effect.

About this fabric

The fabric is visually plain, but close inspection shows a fine, closely set woven texture that softens the otherwise inky colour. In this photograph, the blue cast keeps the charcoal from looking flat black, while the low sheen leaves the surface calm and restrained. It is catalogued as a fabric, and no performance features are noted in the supplied information. Its even woven appearance gives it a versatile, mid-weight character for both upholstery and drapery.

How to use it

Use Jazz Ink to bring a cool, grounded note to a room through tailored seating, relaxed curtains or a deep tonal scheme. Its blue-charcoal depth pairs especially well with pale stone, smoked wood and brushed metal.

A deep blue-charcoal plain weave for tailored upholstery, curtains and tonal schemes.

Pairs well with

Jazz Ink is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
